In the conference room, Danzo, who had taken off the bandage, walked slowly to the seat and sat down. The ferocious expression on his face has returned to calm and collected.
In contrast, Hiruzen showed complex emotions such as intolerance, discomfort, sadness, anger, etc. He held the pipe firmly in his right hand, stared at Danzo and asked: "What do you mean?"
"Humph."
Danzo glanced at Hiruzen with disdain, then turned his head and looked towards Minato, and his expression subconsciously became serious, "Six days ago, neither I nor my subordinates attacked the Military Police Force's member, this is the undoubted fact! As for this Sharingan, hehehehe, it was given to me by Sandaime's good disciple, Orochimaru."
Hiruzen's face changed slightly when he heard this: "You are framing!!"
Danzo didn't even look at Hiruzen. He looked straight at Minato, and said: "Yondaime, Orochimaru didn't explain the origin of this Sharingan when it was handed over to me, so I really didn't know about the disappearance of Military Police Force's member! As for the truth, as long as you catch Orochimaru, it will be perfectly clear!"
Minato frowned slightly and asked: "Advisor Danzo, you mean that the disappearance of Shinobi has nothing to do with you, and Orochimaru did it all alone?"
Danzo narrowed his eyes, but did not answer, and instead asked back: "Yondaime, if I'm not mistaken, this conference room must be surrounded by Anbu's Shinobi, right? That is to say, I and everyone here are trapped here, and there is no way to send a message to anyone, right?"
Minato didn't answer, which was regarded as acquiescing Danzo's words.
In the end, Danzo has the Root in his hands. If he refuses to plead guilty and leads his subordinates to cause chaos, it will definitely cause huge trouble to the village, so blocking his connection with the Root is the right thing to do!
Danzo smiled: "Under the premise that I have no way to pass on the information, Yondaime only needs to find the missing Shinobi's corpse in Orochimaru's laboratory. I think that should be able to clear my suspicion."
"Danzo!!!"
Hiruzen was furious. He didn't expect this guy is going to throw all his sins on his disciple, Orochimaru. If this goes on, Orochimaru is bound to become a wanted Missing-nin, and he may even be caught and executed on the spot!
Danzo finally turned his head, looked Hiruzen with black and red eyes, and said with a smile: "Sandaime, if you find the Military Police Force's member and other missing Shinobi's corpses in Orochimaru's laboratory, do you know what it means? Konoha Sannin, hehehe, he was taught by you."
Hiruzen's chest rises and falls continuously, and he was so angry that he couldn't speak!
Koharu and Homura look at each other in shock. They and Danzo are good friends, contemporaries, and comrades since childhood, and they had a very good relationship, but Orochimaru is still the disciple of their old friend, Hiruzen, so they could neither help Danzo throw the blame to Orochimaru, nor help Hiruzen to blame Danzo, so the two of them watched this matter in silence and began to rest their minds.
There was a brief silence in the conference room.
Shikaku leaned on the back of the chair with an irritated look on his face, 'Why did I get involved in such a troublesome thing?'
Fugaku, who sat opposite him, suppressed his agitated mood and watched the development of the situation quietly.
Fugaku saw Danzo's bad attitude towards Uchiha Clan with his own eyes, and was angry in his heart. At this time, seeing the confrontation between Yondaime and Danzo, he wished he could stand up and shout, hitting this bastard when he's down, so that Danzo can't turn over forever, however, he can't do it!
It is because he knew that 3-Tomoe Sharingan in Danzo's eyes was not the eyes of his missing clansman. If he stood up at this time and attacked Danzo with this matter, how would Yondaime and the other advisors think of him after knowing this matter?
Deliberately concealing the truth in order to persecute the village's higher-up?
This is bound to become an excuse for them to attack Uchiha Clan!
Therefore, Fugaku can only be silent!
In this way, even if the village's higher-up knows the truth later, he can fool the matter on the grounds that 'I don't want to persecute Advisor Danzo, I just want to know how that 3-Tomoe Sharingan in Advisor Danzo's eye came from!
In other words, Fugaku can only watch, not hit a person when he's down.
After all, once the stone is thrown, there will only be trouble in the future.
As for Kanpū, he appeared here as a witness, not a higher-up, so after completing the testimony, he can only watch quietly. Besides, he had already perfectly burned the fire on Orochimaru, so he can finally sleep well in the future!
Minato sat in the top, sinking into contemplation, and after a while, he turned his head and looked towards Danzo: "Where is Orochimaru's laboratory?"
In order to protect himself, Danzo naturally would not conceal it, and he sold Orochimaru thoroughly on the spot, exposing his two secret laboratories in the village.
Minato asked Kanpū to write down the address of the laboratory, and then asked him to open the door.
Outside the door, there is a layer of fuzzy bubble-like film that wraps the conference room from all directions, up and down, left and right. This is the masterpiece of Anbu's Sealing Team, which is used to block the sound inside from spreading out.
The Anbu's people are guarding outside the film, and the Anbu Commander, Eagle stood inside the film, so Kanpū saw him as soon as he opened the door.
"Eagle." Minato said in a calm voice.
"Minato!!!" Hiruzen suddenly looked towards Minato, and even called Minato affectionately.
Once the missing Shinobi's corpse is found in Orochimaru's laboratory, Orochimaru will be finished!
Orochimaru is no longer a human being, but he is still the diciple he brought up since he was a child.
Hiruzen can't bear to just watch this happen!
Minato sighed, as he could understand Sarutobi Hiruzen's mood, it's just like when he learned that the person who attacked Kushina is his disciple, Uchiha Obito, but now that the matter has come to this point, he must thoroughly investigate it!
Minato closed his eyes and said: "Please call Orochimaru to the conference room, and at the same time, immediately investigate Orochimaru's two laboratories thoroughly!"
Kanpū consciously handed in the small note in his hand to Eagle.
After Eagle took it, he bowed slightly: "I understand!"
He was standing inside the film and heard the conversation in the conference room just now, so he knew what his task was without too much explanation.
Turning around and stepping out of the film, the corridor outside is full of people wearing various animal masks, the Anbu's Shinobi!
Shisui and Kakashi's sixth team were also called here to stand by urgently after half a day of training!
'A terrible event has happened!' Shisui looked at the film made by the sealing team, and the face under the mask is was not only dignified, but also a little worried, for fear that this incident would affect the clan.
Until Eagle came out of the film.
Eagle looked around and called the captains of the second and fourth teams, and asked them to search a laboratory each with their team members, and set three small targets.
First, confirm the owner of the laboratory.
Secondly, find out the Shinobi that disappeared some time ago, no matter whether they are dead or alive, even if only hair and dander are left, they must find the traces of their existence!
Finally, find out if Danzo is related to the laboratory.
Hearing these three small targets, the faces of the two captains became serious.
"Go." Eagle ordered.
"Yes!"
After the two captains responded, they immediately waved their hands to signal their subordinates to follow up, and left quickly.
In the blink of an eye, only the members of the third, sixth, and ninth teams are left in the corridor.
Eagle pondered for a while, and said: "Kakashi, Shisui, come with me."
"Yes!"
The two wearing the red fox mask and the crow mask took a step forward, followed by Eagle and left quickly.
...
In training ground in Orochimaru's mansion, Anko is training Hidden Shadow Snake Hands at this moment.
This technique is to summon a snake from the hand to attack in an instant, but Anko can only summon two green-skinned snakes after a long time of practice.
Orochimaru leaned against the wooden pillars of the wooden corridor, watching Anko's training expressionlessly.
For some reason, he is a little restless all day today, always feeling that something big is about to happen.
Orochimaru recalled the past few days, except for his contact with Kanpū, he didn't do anything out of the ordinary.
'Is it because of Kanpū?'
Orochimaru suddenly remembered what Danzo said.
'The nickname Gekko Nigeru must have been jointly created by Minato and Gekko Kanpū. Once we contacted him, it is bound to cause trouble!'
'Am I really in trouble?'
Orochimaru shook his head slightly. Although he wanted to use the secret of Kusanagi Sword to lure Kanpū to spy on Sandaime, the deal has not been reached, and he did not leave any evidence, so even if Kanpū reported to Minato about this matter, it won' affect him.
'If it wasn't because of Kanpū, could it be that the Shinobi I caught before were discovered?'
"What's wrong with Orochimaru-sensei today?" After Anko finished training, she found Orochimaru absent-minded and couldn't help but muttered.
At this moment, three figures suddenly climbed over the wall and entered.
Anko was startled when she saw this. After all, this is the home of the legendary one of the Sannin, so who dares to climb the wall?
Anko stared and found that the other party was actually Anbu!
'Anbu...'
And the leader is Eagle, the Anbu Commander!
Orochimaru narrowed his golden vertical pupils, the corner of his mouth cracked, and he slowly stretched out his tongue to lick his chin.
"Orochimaru, Yondaime-sama is asking for your presence!" Eagle said.
"Yondaime, what is he looking for me for?" Orochimaru asked calmly.
"I don't know."
Eagle then said, "Please!"
Standing behind him, Shisui and Kakashi tensed their muscles.
As early as outside the conference room, they had already noticed that something important was happening. After leaving Hokage Tower, they also asked Eagle, but Eagle didn't explain to them, only told them to obey orders.
Until this moment, Shisui and Kakashi didn't know that today's affairs are related to Orochimaru.
Orochimaru looked down at his kimono, and said with a smile: "Then, please allow me to change to a more suitable clothes."
Eagle nodded slightly.
"Orochimaru-sensei?" Anko looked at Anbu, then at Orochimaru, unable to figure out what happened.
"Anko, continue training."
Orochimaru turned around and entered the house, then took off his kimono and put on... another kimono.
"Let's go." Orochimaru walked out of the house. His golden vertical pupils are looking at Eagle with a little playfulness.
Eagle did not notice what Orochimaru was doing, so he quickly jumped out of the mansion.
When the group of four left one after another, in the house, a few white snakes slowly emerged from the kimono that Orochimaru had taken off, and quickly slittered along the wooden corridor, disappearing in a blink of an eye.
At the same time.
Anbu's second and fourth teams also rushed to their respective target laboratories and started searching.
One of the two laboratories is built in the basement of a remote building in the village, and the other is built in the deep underground of the dense forest somewhere outside the village. Both of them are extremely hidden, and there are venomous snakes hovering around the entrance. Fortunately, those who entered Anbu are all elites, so the trifling venomous snakes was quickly resolved.
After violently breaking open the door of the laboratory, the members of the two teams began to search frantically.
Soon, they found a large amount of research data on human experiments in their respective laboratories, as well as stumps and broken arms soaked in various potions.
"Sharingan?!"
Members of the fourth team who searched the underground laboratory in the dense forest outside the village found a pair of 2-Tomoe Sharingan soaked in green liquid medicine in the closet of an operating room, at the same time, in the next room, they found a corpse in a Military Police Force's uniform!
"…notify Hokage-sama immediately!"
